45: Personal and Professional Growth & Challenges: A Co-Interview with Megan Smyth

Get ready for a mix up because this week’s episode of Rebrand with RuthAnn is an unscripted co-interview with me, RuthAnn, and one of my first podcast guests, Megan Smyth who is ALSO the copywriter on my team at R Artspace! We’re getting together to discuss our personal and professional growth over the past year as we have both experienced major changes. We’re getting a bit vulnerable and uncovering the challenges we’ve faced, such as losing clients, feeling stuck, and learning to become comfortable with hiring (and firing)! You’ll hear my own journey of transitioning from a solopreneur to building a team and adopting an agency model. Then, Megan shares about her experience with sales and marketing and how she developed a system that not only works but feels GOOD. In this episode, you’ll learn the importance of feel-good sales and marketing strategies, mindset and manifestation and how it contributes to business success, the power of intuition and so much more. Overall, this girlfriend-chat style conversation emphasizes the importance of trusting yourself, taking action, and finding joy in your business and life. Highlights: How Megan reevaluated and restructured her business after losing majority of her recurring income in the beginning of 2023 RuthAnn realizing she needed a copywriter on her team to remove bottlenecks for her clients, and how RuthAnn has warmed to the agency model  How Megan teaches her clients to become comfortable with selling and the idea that we never start as experts  Leaning into the energetics and mindset of being a business owner and being relaxed and confident rather than needy or clingy The process that Megan and RuthAnn both followed when trying new (and sometimes scary) things in their business  Megan’s lifestyle as a traveling business nomad and what her life usually looks like year by year  What a day in the life currently looks like for RuthAnn as the mama to three kids under 5 years old and a thriving business owner ⁠Sign up for the newsletter⁠⁠ OR share the podcast to social media and tag @r_artspace Visit this episode's blog post ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
